"We’re extremely excited to be able to offer a whole new array of different goodies. From local, pastured farm-fresh eggs, caviar, eastern european/russian food stuffs and snacks, British goodies, French goodies, more canned fish items from around the world and more. We will also be slowly introducing a small section with Falafel and other middle eastern goodies as a shout out to our Sephardic Brothers!"
It's great to see a local business thrive and expand. Lucky for us, Shelsky's of Brooklyn will only be a few blocks away from the original location. Wishing Peter and Lewis lots of luck.

A tip to build good will, when opening, it would be nice for customers to be invited to taste. The smallest tidbit. When they opened on Smith Street, I would have become a customer if this had happened. Even a little morsel of bread.
I desperately wanted to love this place but I thought it was too expensive and the set-up was awkward. Maybe a change of location, expanded concept, and influx of cash from an outside investor will keep this guy in business for a couple more years.
Normally I'm more sympathetic but the last time I was in there Shelsky was behind the register griping on his cell-phone to his buddy about how slow business was while the latino cooks/dishwashers were doing all the work including taking my order. I will admit, he did finish his call in time to take my $17 for a bagel sandwich and coffee though he wasn't very friendly about it.
